The new hard drives have been received for both the Echolink W8MSU-R server and the HF data/digital voice/logging computer. Everyone is gone until the spring semester starts, so we hope that the W8MSU-R Echolink node will be up by late January, time willing.

Hi Everyone, I was tracked down by the local East Lansing Boy Scout Council to do put on another JOTA for them. The event is October 18-19th. If my work schedule permits (and I will know if a few days) I will put on the event from them. It would be nice to have a little more participation from the club though. Send me an email if you are interested in Jamboree on the Air and willing to help. The last two years they have had great feedback on how much fun the boys had at this event. David KD8BXT
Obtaining your amateur radio license is a great way to advance your engineering career. Many prominent engineers are amateur radio operators, and you might find yourself having something in common with an interviewer or future boss.
Since so many devices today incorporate wireless features, having a proven wireless background via amateur radio is something that can help push your resume to the top of the stack when searching for an internship or future job.
